An arms race refers to the goal of two or more nations spending funds to research and build weapons of war. During the later parts of the twentieth century, the Soviet Union and the United States were engaged in an effort to build a superior military force that could dominate world military affairs. Many military analysts and historians believe that the USSR, in its efforts to keep pace with the USA, overspent their resources and this help cause the collapse of the Soviet Union.
